Introduced in 1991, the Callicrate SMART Bander™ has proven its worth, with over 60,000 units sold and millions of bulls successfully ‘Callicrated’. The Callicrate SMART method of humane, bloodless, drug-free delayed castration uses extra-strong Callicrate Loops™ and a patented no-slip clip that holds the tension for immediate and total blocking of the blood flow for a faster scrotal drop time. Each loop is ratcheted to the precise tightness required, providing a custom fit, decreasing pain and swelling. The scrotum should drop off in 20 to 45 days. The Callicrate SMART Bander™ may be used on cattle, goats, and sheep or other livestock with a scrotum. In addition to castration, the SMART Bander™ may be used for de-horning and prolapse treatment. Veterinarians find additional uses for the bander in their practices.

The SMART Bander™ can be used on any size bull, including fully mature animals, and comes in a carrying case with the bander, 5 loops, and a Callicrate Cutter™.The bander is warranted to be free of defects in material, manufacture, or assembly for a period of five years. Unauthorized repair; or damage due to abuse, misuse, or neglect is not covered.
